11 Sites like Reddit you’ll eager to use everyday

Remember The Matrix? World is data. Information. You cannot possibly read or just look through all of it, remember how difficult it was to read matrix? All news has to be fun and useful on daily basis. I mean, like, I spend some time with New York Times but it would be nice to have sites you can totally surf and feel like reading something substantial. Infotainment, but not infomercials that are all over us recently. Reddit is the most popular one.

Voat

That is also the site most similar to Reddit. You just get Subverses instead of Subreddits. But the first page, unlike Reddit, does not hit you with megatons of information. User can totally ease into it in a second.

Right now it is offering things like How Old Floppy Disks Worked link from YouTube, quite a few discussions of last week shootings including Turkish coup attempt, medical article about immune system and a brainiac level article on physics. Variety is certainly here.

And I sincerely appreciate “Atheism” Subverse. It is a rare thing even in 21st century.

There is more hate based stuff here than in good old Reddit, because … “no censorship”, remember?

Quora

Signing for fun things to read or ask sounds pretty nerdy. And it is nerdy, but also classy. Its a question-and-answer site where a community of users ask, answer and edit each other with perfect grammar (probably perfect).

Facebook users will be happy to hear that Quora was founded by Facebook people Adam D’Angelo and Charlie Cheever. Those guys were crazy about Q&A sites.

But as you see it requires users to register with their real names rather than an Internet nicknames (screen name), and the site is basically unusable if a user is not logged in and using cookies.

It has evolved into a community though. Veterans of industries and people who matter right now answer questions more often than not, e.g. Jimmy Wales of Wikipedia.

When you see those big names you kind of eager to spend some time here without doubting.

For people who like the election systems, the voting system here is excellent. Voters keep best answer on top, super easy to find.

Popurls

I love the dark butterfly logo.

With Popurls you can check current headlines of everything. Reddit, The Verge, Digg, Flickr, Huffington Post, Metafilter, Longform, YouTube, Google, Buzzfeed, and many other major news outlets. And articles that seemingly come from nowhere like the funny thing I just found: “10 Amazing Services for The Rich”

If you try scrolling it down all the way to the bottom it will take you some time. The amount of content is overwhelming. It would take weeks and gallons of coffee just to read the most interesting things here.

Customization feature is a saviour here. You need to create an account and log in. Right after that you can start customizing, put all content and topics you like on top and so on.

StumbleUpon

This things daresays to PREDICT what you are looking for. Except you have to tell it what you like first, like tech, sports, “iPhone awesomeness”, etc. Then StumbleUpon will feed you just the news you like.

Although this site could be overwhelming just like other, people come to love it.

To state the obvious, you can find things here that you would never find on your own.

Buzzfeed

This is a weapon of mass destruction when it comes to killing time. Countless videos and audios and other clickable little things will keep you awake till morning.

New stuff every few minutes, your reading skills better be well above average.

Reddit and some these sites are extremely popular. Sites like that will keep popping up because a few thousand visitor are guaranteed. So, this list cannot possibly be ever complete. The funny thing is you can go to Reddit or Mashable or some others and ask for a good alternative. It depends more on how much data you can consume in a lifetime.
